RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Namita Soman 2015-01-26 22:39:19 UTC 
Description of problem:

when adding permission in interactive mode, not prompted to enter right, and so permission-add fails

# ipa permission-add
Permission name: perm_one
[Subtree]: cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=testrelm,dc=test
[Member of group]: admins
[Target group]: admins
[Type]: 
ipa: ERROR: 'ipapermright' is required

Since --right is required, user should be prompted to enter it when adding permission in interactive mode


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use ipa permission-add to add a new permission, and follow prompts to enter values


Actual results:
fails with error -
ipa: ERROR: 'ipapermright' is required

# ipa permission-add --right=read
Permission name: perm_one
[Subtree]: cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=testrelm,dc=test
[Member of group]: admins
[Target group]: admins
[Type]:

Missed entering version. This is on ipa-server-4.1.0-16.el7.x86_64
Comment 3 Martin Kosek 2015-01-28 08:58:27 UTC 
This is related to your Bug 782851 which was closed as DEFERRED, but in this case I see the fix as doable, --right option should be marked as required. Cloning upstream.
